Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Advised about procedure and feld well cared for
From check in very friendly and professional. Nurses informed me every step and asked if I had any questions or concerns. Had no apprehension because they were very thorough and professional

Couldn't have gone better
I was impressed with everyone from the reception person to the doctor and all of the nurses. I am not an easy stick, the ladies that did my iv actually listened to me and did a great job of getting the iv in with only 2 tries, You don't know how rare that is for me! Dr. was wonderful. kind and patient!

Drs and staff at Ohio Gastro
The nurses were very attentive and explained what they were doing. Dr McCarty took time to explain the procedure and knew my history with the practice and helped me understand the process. Would recommend the team to anyone needing their specialized skills.

Exceptional physician, staff and practice
Had a colonoscopy screening completed by Dr. McCarthy. Initial scheduling was very thorough with multiple communications to ensure I new what to expect. I spoke to nurse prior to procedure twice and they very kindly answered all my questions. Day of screening the entire staff was professional, friendly and kept me informed. Dr. McCarthy met with me prior to and after procedure. The team is thorough and by the book. Following business day, I received a follow up call from office to ensure I was doing well. Very rare to find this level of service and experience.

Gastroenterologist
My gastroenterologist recently retired, he recommended I utilize Dr. McCarthy going forward. I had a follow up appointment after my recent colonoscopy, he and his assistant Hannah were excellent. Very friendly, professional and I was totally informed and satisfied with the treatment plan Dr. McCarthy initiated.

Dr. McCarthy is my new gastroenterology doctor
My gastroenterology doctor of over 40 years retired. He recommended Dr. McCarthy at OhioGastro. I am very glad he did. I underwent both a colonoscopy and an endoscopy on January 6th 2023. The support staff was excellent and the procedures went quite well. I appreciated the detailed after procedure report which addressed my concerns. The facilities are excellent. I highly recommend this Physician and the Facilities on Olentangy River Road.

First Consult
This was my first visit with Dr. McCarthy. Check-in was a breeze and I was seen immediately after entering the exam room. All of the staff I interacted with were friendly and professional. Dr. McCarthy was familiar with my history and offered choices for treatment. We discussed the different pros and cons and decided on a plan. Dr. McCarthy showed concern and empathy for my condition. I felt an active participant instead of a case study. I would highly recommend Dr. McCarthy.

Would not recommend
Poor follow up. Gave me the run around over and over, after doing their expensive and troublesome procedure. Seemed to me they only wanted to unnecessary colonoscopies and endoscopies instead of figuring out what my problem really is. I absolutely do not recommend.
